Before researching to getting my windows tinted, I went to the manufacture of our windows website and saw they offered tinted versions of Lexan. I was excited to see it so I inquired about purchasing a set and while they were willing to make them, they are under contract with RCR and we'd have to purchase them through RCR. I inquired with RCR June/July 2019 about the possibility of getting a set, but no luck. It sounded like demand wasn't there.
At the end of 2019 I finally located someone willing to to tint my windows with 30% ceramic (can't recall brand). Came out pretty great, made all the difference while driving and the bonus is the car looks even better. It held up great early 2020 but with the pandemic I didn't get to drive the car much. This year it's already stinkin' hot here in Louisiana and the few hundred miles I've logged, I've noticed the tint is absolutely not holding up anymore with plenty of bubbles. It needs to come off, quite embarrassing to look at, but on the other hand makes the car so much nicer to drive it'll be hard for me to talk myself into removing it.
From another thread, there is a handful of us currently willing to pre-order a set of tinted windows if RCR would be willing to get them produced. Anyone that drives a SLC where it's hot finds out pretty quickly how quickly tinted windows are a necessity. I have a feeling there's probably more people willing to pre-order tinted Lexan.
Anyone interested, please add your name and I'll keep them together. I'm just guessing, but the % of light transmission through tinted Lexan potentially could be less than that of local state laws which means the windows would be for offroad use only. I'm really, really hoping we can make this a reality.
Fran, if reading this any chance you'd be willing to help us? Pretty please?!

I never even noticed Pnut had tint on his and tint is something I typically would notice.
